'Using gels to tame highly reactive chemicals.' An explainer on our new research paper: york.ac.uk/chemistry/news… You can find the original paper here: nature.com/articles/s4155…

We did a thing! My first first author paper is now out in @ACSSustainable! Really proud of this work. Thanks so much to all the co-authors and especially to @professor_dave and @Ian_Fairlamb for the support throughout this work. @ChemistryatYork
